Reviews: What People Think About Spelling Hangman
John Stockett
Rating: 2/5
I wanted to find a hangman game where I could write my own words - and it does that.
However, you should be aware of the following:
- it doesn’t show you how many letters are in the word you are guessing
- it doesn’t accept a letter unless it is the NEXT letter in the word (so if I guess “s” and it is in the word, but not until the end... it is counted as a mistake)
- it doesn’t show you what letters have already been guessed
It feels more like a spelling app than it does a hangman app. If you’re looking for hangman, I would NOT suggest this app.

My son was having a hard time with his weekly spelling words, so I downloaded this game and he loves it. Can’t wait to see how his tests turn out. Easy to input words.

This app looks good but doesn’t play like Hangman. It doesn’t show you how many letters make up the word, your words don’t come up randomly and it doesn’t show used letters. You literally need to know what word in your list the game is playing with. Sorry I bought this, maybe this will save you your $1.99
About Spelling Hangman
Designed specifically for those spelling lists from school
Appymall - 'Spelling Hangman is a neat app for practicing spelling lists. Parents or teachers can add their own spelling list for children to work on, add audio, choose to lock their lists under "lock configuration" with a password and get kids practicing. In the app, the first word is spoken, and can be repeated by hitting the arrow at the bottom, and kids practice spelling it by using the keyboard at the right. The app plays like a traditional game of hangman, when a letter is missed a piece of the picture shows up, and if the entire word is missed, the word is shown. I like now customizable the app is, with adding your own words and lists, it makes it appropriate for a wider range of students. The voice detection is good, which can be an issue. I would like to see a better hint system in future updates, but overall this is a solid app that I would recommend. I saw no links, ads, or IAPs.' 4 stars
EducationalAppStore - 'Spelling Hangman is a fun and easy to use app that will come in handy for young children when preparing for spelling classes. It’s fair to say that the app can be easily used in the classroom and incorporated in the regular curricula. The app receives a 4 star EAS Certification and with a few tweaks from the developer it can become a 5 star app!'
iMums - 'I would recommend this app, for sure! I believe it could be useful within the therapy room, as a center in the general education classroom, or as a reward in a special education classroom, just to name a few. This is such a great tool to be used to functionally practice spelling words, or “word study” words as we call them! I feel this app has great potential and with the few things worked out, it would be a 5-star app! I was incredibly impressed with the app and had I known the few things I discovered, I would certainly have rated it higher!' - 4.5 stars
Spelling Hangman is a fun and easy way to prepare for weekly school spelling tests.
To create your own tests, enter and record each of the spellings, then play a hangman style game with 'sneaky peeks' to help the learning process.
You will enter each letter of the word in the correct order, but watch out, if you make a mistake, hangman will start to appear. Stuck? - press and hold the 'Sneaky Peek' button to look at the word. It might sound like cheating, but each 'Sneaky Peek' adds a hangman stage.
When you have finished your test, check your scores. High scores will be saved for you to try and beat next time.
Spelling Hangman can also be used as a any language, for which you have a keyboard, to English vocab tester.
Tests may be shared between devices using Airdrop, iMessage or eMail.
